He didn't leave anyone out, including the dog in the beatings .
Sounds like a drunken piece of crap 🙃
I don't think there's any similitude. He was.
False
Plus a 19yo whife that called him uncle.
@@pelly8830 OK... so you're defending Hitler's father? Weird and bad take
@@adamk.7177 Defending the truth. There is zero evidence that the father ever beat the son. Beatings were never mentioned in by Hitler. You need to ask yourself who it is that promotes these lies and why.
She called her husband uncle? Totally nothing weird about that at all.
How about "Daddy"?
Those Hitler family weddings must have been quite something to behold.
Very weird...I agree. Unfortunately todays world is also weird in many ways. 😒
What a bunch of prudes we have in today's world
@@soberanisfam1323Well, incest is still wrong and disgusting.
This is history - filling in the dimensions we'd never know without people like Mark. Thanks!!
duuuuh
The sound effect at 0:37 😂😂😂😂😂😂 Dr. Felton, you, Sir, are a legend for that 🏆
There’s a name for that sound effect but I forgot it.
It’s almost the alert sound from metal gear solid. Bravo Mark Bravo😂😂
As a seasoned observer of Adolf Hitler and his times one surely has got a fair share of brutality and violence, but learning that Alois Hitler even beat *his dog* still manages to shock. One of the many details that set Mark Felton apart from the rest of the crop.
It was still a pre-hydrocarbon era. Such things were common at the time.
@@traumvonhaitiGehehe good one... So true.
Back in the day, being the man of the house and beating the hell crap of every living thing in your house was how things worked.
Hitler hit his own dog too. There are films of him playing with the Alsatian, named Blondi, and in in then the dog can be seen recoiling in fear every time Hitler bends over her, not knowing if he was going to pet her or slap her.
@@slick4401 Another "muh Hitler was evil" propaganda. 🥱 Hitler himself proposed one of the first animal protection laws in the world.
Another superb piece by Dr. Felton! More historical details packed into 11+ minutes than is often found in 60 minute documentaries found on cable TV.
What is "cable tv" ?
Cable TV lol, are you 80yrs old?
Real talk, I can't believe how much superb content Mark produces. Truly a G.
I dunno, I really think he needs to find some "experts" with bizarre haircuts to speculate on the Hitler family's connection to aliens, Area 51 and the Bermuda Triangle. Only then will we know the truth...
(Just speculating on the sort of documentary you'd see on the History Channel lol)
His knowledge of history is not infallible as he called hitler "a rising figure on the right" In truth hitler was one of the founding members of the National Socialist German Workers Party the loved socialism and disliked Marxism and the same time. They disliked Capitalism as it was considered the "jewish way"
The detail that Alois actually made up the surname Hitler explains alot . So lucky for so many that Hitler didn't have a common surname.
'Adolf' ain't very popular these days either.
@@GBPaddling That name is not very attractive anyway.
He didn't make it up. Hiedler was his stepfather's surname.
Alois was an illegitimately born child of Maria Shicklgruber (Sheckel grabber) who later married a man named Johann Hiedler.
There's a speculation that Alois' biological father was Maria's Jewish employer.
@@traumvonhaiti Lol, I've thought about that jokey pun on the name, but "schickl" means something like elegant, and "Gruber" is one of the most common Germanic names, related to mining or digging in general. There's not necessarily any J roots implied in that name.
@@Vingul Yes, you are right. Pun actually intended))
And yes, the name is as German as they come, and does not imply anything whatsoever.
The Jewish origin speculation is only on the part of Alois' unknown father.
You can't help but to feel a bit of sympathy for the sad life lived by Paula Hitler who had to make the best of her circumstances and didn't ask to be born into a family of Hitlers, which consisted of a controlling father and older brother and to a mother who died while she was young.
Regarding alleged sympathy for Nazi-type ideology, perhaps this was a reminder on the real historical nature of German militarist nationalism from 1815 to 1945, much of it was in turn influenced by the various German ruling classes, especially the Habsburgs and the Hohenzollerns.
What was later preached by the Nazis was already prevalent in pre-1933,perhaps pre-1923 Germanic zones.
4 years in the trenches radicalized many of the then-young men who already had not-very-inclusive ideas.
The mainstream conservative ruling classes supposedly despised the Nazis but it was more due to an internal disagreement over the allocation of money, power and status rather than ideological differences.
These conservatives at most tolerated Jews and other so-called undesirables. This did not mean these conservatives were inclusive-minded.
Regarding the Hitler family in Austria from 1815 to 1914, it was a time where some Austrian-German nationalists felt non-Germanic people in the Habsburg Empire should be Germanized in some way.
@@fortpark-wd9sx I think that's a big part people miss when it comes to Nazism, it was primarily about the raising of german culture into a world power, the militarism and traditions and national identity most had some sort of roots, even long before people had the idea of Pan Germania uniting of the Germanic countries into one, or the Hitler youth were multiple organizations before Hitler made it one.
So you can imagine that once they lost ww1, along with their long standing respected militarism (Prussia for example) the idea of a leading German state of Europe being destroyed resulted in a nation / generation being broken, especially when that culture shifted away from a militaristic stand point, causing a lot of veterans to be quite bitter, ww2 was the result of ww1.
Doesnt help either that a lot of german culture taken by Nazism is destroyed / shamed upon today in Germany.
Remember that Adolf Hitler was Austrian, and that the NSDAP originated in Bavaria, not Prussia. As a German Nationalist, Hitler was opposed to globalist Marxism/Communism. During the election campaigns of 1928-1932, the NSDAP mostly campaigned against the Treaty of Versailles, on unemployment and inflation, and against the menace of international Marxism/Communism. These were all popular issues. BY 1933, the NSDAP was the largest party in the Reichstag. The 2nd largest party was the Social Democratic Party (SDP). The 3rd largest party was the German Communist Party (KPD). Like the CPUSA, the KPD was funded, and controlled by Stalin's "Communist International". Hitler obtained a majority in the Reichstag, by forming an alliance with the Nationalist Party. Hitler was then appointed Chancellor by President Hindenburg, in Jan 1933.
By the way, ANTIFA was originally organized as of front group of the KPD. Like ANTIFA of today, the original members were violent Communist street thugs.@@Freyia935
@@Thorr-kl6jlHitler was Austrian, from a region of Austria that speaks a form of bavarian german, he grew up between multiple germans cultures, where the differences are minor, just as with bavaria, Austrians are German and only started to deny this fact once they lost the war.
The NSDAP started from bavaria, and yet they didnt advocate for bavarian independence as many did and still do today, they advocated for germany, the same germany that was shaped by Prussias military that incorporated them and flamed a united german spirit, the same military that created a one german military of tradition, honor, and high respect that eventually sent them to fight for their Kaiser in WW1.
Not sure what the rest of your comment is meant to be
Any sympathy I felt for her at the start of the video was gone at the end, when she defended to the end an ideology of mass-murder, genocide, etc. Considering the fate of her brother’s victims, she should count herself lucky and thankful that the victors believed in human rights, rule of law and not in concepts like guilt-by-relationship. I wish her no harm… but sympathy she won’t get any.
The way Mark synthesized the first section about Alois’ bizarre love life and relationships was more like a Jerry Springer episode than a biography of major world figure. Hitler’s Mom calling her baby daddy/husband, “Uncle” takes the cake.🎂. Hitler’s dad is creepy looking in general.
Don’t forget the sun amped up the creepiness With his own niece, she probably tried to end the insane cycle by killing herself
@@user-lj1xm6fq3w oh yeah her suicide is an indictment of her lover for certain. My understanding is, Addy was dating Eva while Lily was still alive. Ergo some connection between jealousy & her suicide is almost certain.
Yeah, he seemingly wasn't normal.
@@Azuris190 The Family was just wack. Hitler messing with his niece is so gross, I can’t. 🤮
He was her uncle.
As always no nonsense and no idle chatter. Thank you 😊
I did a little search for these relatives of Hitler. Turns out the live in Long Island, New York. I do remember hearing something about them several decades ago and completely forgot about them. The neighbors knew who they are and said they are good people. As she said “You can’t be blamed for your relatives"
A little search? It’s been featured on Mark’s channel…?
The neighbors were right.
William Patrick Stuart-Houston (born William Patrick Hitler), Adolf Hitler's half-nephew. He even served in the US Navy during the war, the induction officer initially thinking he was joking when he reported in as Hitler.
There are others in Austria, I think.
@@pjotrtje0NLThat’s how little it was.
Imagine being the guy that fired the sister in 1930
"Did I say she was fired? I meant promoted."
@@dougearnest7590😂 😂 😂
Whomever fired her at the time was totally off base for terminating her, no matter who was in power. But your right, this person must have been terrified a few short years later knowing he fired A.H. sister.
@@dougearnest7590That's a good one.
She was cancelled. Clearly it was happening then too.
another masterpiece Dr.Felton!
It's no joke. He's tossing out this kind of info, as if some composer like Mozart would play a masterpiece just once and if it was lost, he wouldn't much bother about it.
These videos always provide so much more background than you get in most documentaries.
These are the best documentaries being produced anywhere, I don't know how you can make so many quality productions and make it look easy but please keep it up Dr. Felton
Thank you Dr. Felton!
Significant amount of detail in an 11 minute video. Your videos are always well researched and will presented. Thanks for all your work.
Excellent work, Mark! Cheers!
Alois couldn’t wait till his wife died before he slept around with the housemaid.
“Hey how’s your wife doing?”
‘Which one?’
Thank you for another excellent video. I never tire of listening to your stories.
This is truly the best history channel on CZcams. Mark Felton is the best!
Thank you, Dr. Felton. I have studied WW2 since the 1960's, and I continue to learn from your videos.
My deceased Father was British Army on the Rhine, and the in-Laws were both RAF/WAAF in Aiden ... I wish they were still alive to see your insightful reports today ...
yep, I feel the personal reports on Hitler & family especially were essentially out of reach until Mark made them available. Especially pre-Internet, though. Too much noise, speculation, etc. Only academics would've known what was sensational and what was real until lately.
@notrut My grandfather was a fighter pilot with the Royal Air Force. I wish he were here so I could tell him "Thank you."
I just want to say thank you for all the content Dr. Felton. I was injured badly in August of last year. It was a car accident. I have watched all of your videos, they have literally become part of my healing process... Im happy to say i am up and about again. Slowly but surely... Thanks again❤ i will always watch your videos.
Keeping healing sir.
@@stephenle-surf9893 thank you
Prayers sent your way.
I found this a very sensitive and interesting treatment of a touchy subject. Well handled. (Well conceived and thought-through, written, edited, narrated, and all the rest...)
I cannot believe I knew nothing about Paula. Thank you for a fascinating video.
She wasn't a remarkable character. How much do you know about today's politicians' siblings who enjoy private lives?
@traumvonhaiti Very true. But somehow, with Hitler, you feel everything has been documented and out in the public domain. Only to find out something so simple as the fact he had a sister.
@@rodeastell3615 I think everything has been documented on Hitler. Certain things are just well highlighted, while others not so much.
Again, very true. I think I am just surprised at my lack of knowledge of her even though she was as you say, unremarkable.
@@rodeastell3615 they seem to only scream maniac and genocide
Your narration made such a simple story so fascinating to watch. I didn’t expect to be glued till the end 😅
Another nice episode. This is a subject that I would unlikely find out by myself. Thanks, Dr. Felton!
Excellent, Dr Felton, thank you for this excellent piece of historical interest.
Another good one! Love these trips through the backroads of history.
Another one hit out of the park, Dr. Felton! Your videos are always a treat, and I am already looking forward to the next one.
Well researched and narrated.
Hi Mark,
Great video.
Keep up the good work bringing us information that would never have thought of.
Look forward the next episode.
Please do a video on Friedrich Grade born 1916 who passed away a few weeks ago at 107!
Absolutely fascinating, Dr. Felton. Thank you.
Thx for video Mark Feltom,
Amazing history to be told! Many thanks, Dr. Mark.
I tried to dress up as the Red Baron for Halloween last night, but my family shot that down. lol
Cute. 🚀
"...Higher, the king of the sky -
He's flying too fast and he's flying too high!

Manfred von Richthofen, Snoopy’s “ Red Baron”, was a real person, a German flying ace in World War I. He was shot down by a British fighter pilot at the age of twenty-five. His sister, Frieda, married D. H. Lawrence, author of “Lady Chatterly’s Lover.”
congrats to 2 Million subscribers Mark! you made some of the best researched WW2 videos on CZcams, I really enjoy every each of them.
Sad that he has two million while idiots like the Paul brothers have millions. Doctor Felton is without a doubt one of my favorites.
Thank you for the excellent content mark
Thank you Mark. You truly know how to dig up stories! Many thanks again.
Haha, dig up.
@@thEannoyingE - Yup! 😆
Absolutely AMAZING research!!!!
fantastic ! Thank Dr Felton for your amazing work.
I love these curious stories Professor Felton brings to us.
TWO MILLION SUBS!!! CONGRATS!!!
Excellent research, Doctor. Wow.
Fascinating video! Thank you so much.
Your vignettes never cease to be impressive, Mark.
The meaning of Adolf Hitler's name:
Adolf being a contraction of Adalwulf, meaning 'Noble wolf' (a 9th century Anglo Saxon King of Wessex sharing the name, wrttien as 'Æthelwulf', and 'Æthel' being a common component of the names of early English nobility, such as Æthelstan, Noble stone, he who unified the Anglo Saxon kingdoms into the Kingdom of England in 927 AD).
Hitler, being a variation of Hiedler, means one who lives by a hiedl. A hiedl in old Austro-Bavarian dialect means subterranean river.
So Adolf Hitler means 'Noble wolf of the subterranean river'.
In Pre-Christian Germanic pagan myth, as best preserved in its Norse version in the 13th century Icelandic Sagas, one of the places of afterlife is 'Hel', from which the later Christian 'Hell' gets its name. Like Hell, Hel is a place in the underworld, but it differs in that it is not a place in which evildoers are tormented, but rather the place where all but those who die in battle (and go to Valhǫll/Valhalla) go.
In order to enter Hel, the dead must cross the river (in the underworld, thus being a hiedl) called Gjöll. On the far side of the river, the gates of Hel were guarded by a wolf/dog named Garmr.
'Adolf Hitler' literally means Noble wolf that dwells near a subterranean river. That's Garmr. AH is the Hell Hound.
Interestingly, the Hound of Hell is one of the oldest known myths. It's shared by many Aryan people, such as the Ancient Greeks with Cerberus, or the Hindu Sarvara/Syama. But also, it's shared by some Native American tribes, such as the Aztec Xolotl, whose duty was to protect The Sun from the dangers of the underworld.
Given that this same motif occurs in all these cultures, it must be the case that it originated with a population ancestral to all of these people. That population, originally predicted by genetics, then found archaeologicalically are the Ancient North Eurasians, a paleolithic population of Siberia. They're the people believed to have first carried the genes for blonde hair, and with whom the Y-chromosomal R1 haplogroup originated, meaning most Europeans can trace their direct paternal ancestry to an Ancient North Eurasian man. Our forefathers have believed in "Adolf Hitler" for some 24,000 years, when they were hunting mammoths with stone tools in ice age Siberia.
What a magical name.
That's very interesting. Thanks for posting it. My clan are interested pre christen beliefs. My daughter has just revived the "Samhain" ritual .
@@Occident. That's wonderful. Always heartwarming to hear of people returning to their roots.
Just a shame Herr Hitler wasn't born with the forename Adolf. If anyone had ever taken the time to look at his birth certificate, they would have seen that his forename is Adolfus, not Adolf.
@@jimmyavpi Adolfus has the same meaning.
Varg is that you?
This channel is another reason why history will never disappoint or stop to amaze me every day.
'will never disappoint or amaze'?
And people like you and me actually saving this to our brains and harddrives will be important in the future
I don’t know why so many people find history boring. To me, it’s more fascinating than any novel. And it’s all true ( more or less.)
Thank you Dr. Felton
A very informative channel. Happy for stumble upon it 🎸😊
Excellent Mark, what a fascinating story, you can still teach us old dogs. Love your stuff.
Thanks for the history lesson .
A thorough examination of the subject. Absolutely fascinating.
Once again Mr Felton you have in 11 minutes created far more knowledge on this subject than others who have spent hours.
👏👏 many kudos sir
So ridiculous to hide the marker. Hiding it only points it out more and gives it power that it does not possess. Outstanding objective, non-mellodramtic, piece once again from Mr. Felton.
prevents vandalism
People just randomly walking through
wouldn’t notice only the weird ones who come specifically for that site would see it standing out
@@jacobfleming565 Except now that more people know about it, there will be more crazies than ever going there.
Breaking the lock with a pair of spanners takes a few seconds. Indeed, ridiculous.
By crazies I take it you mean those though genetic filtering can easily self justify the slaughter women and children as in Gaza. @@gamewizard1760
I had a Mark Felton costume for Halloween with the obligatory theme music from a JBL speaker.
Very interesting and informative, as we have grown to expect from Mark👍
A great very interesting video as always Mr.Felton.Have a good one.
Another fascinating piece of history by the master, Dr. Felton.
I want mark felton to whisper hitler facts into my ear as I fall asleep
That's...kinky...
@@stevetournay6103I was going to say “creepy “.
Wtf
Another high quality video from Mark.
Yet another good one Mark!
Hey Dr. Felton, I have a question. Are you a militaria collector? I collect some old american fieldgear and some helmets, I was wondering if you yourself was one. If so, I, and i’m sure others would love to see your collection. Thank you, and great video as always!
Fascinating once more Mark you have done a great job on this one, well done.
Not sure what to make of the shared grave but the canny use of the padlock frankly bizarre, I'll leave it to my imagination who or how you found out about the other "resident" in the grave, never mind why someone else would want to share that particular plot is even more bizarre. Did they know?? Well done, again my request for a trip back in time please and can you be my history teacher?!!! Best wishes , Ben 🇬🇧🇺🇦🚌🚐
ive been following this chan pretty much since its beginning, and dr. felton continues to blow my mind. very impressive resume and lookin forward to the next upload, as usual :) big thumbs up.
Well done... as usual.
The elderly father sounded like a complete sociopath.
Explains why Sigmund Freud found so many cases to study in late 19th Century Vienna.
@@Avarua59 there are a lot of odd trends in that country’s culture, including the rural areas. My great grandmother was born there in the late 1800s and was a dressmaker.. no wonder she fled for sh-tholes like Detroit and NYC. That book by Elfriede Jelinek “Greed” is pretty on-point.
Unfortunately, the normal and common-sense Austrians are crowded out by the crazies.
The whole prevalence of incest is probably tied to greed related to hanging onto precious farm land and property. I believe that the law in many of those areas in the 1800s was that a man could not marry at all unless he owned property, which made it difficult to marry at all. Men would marry their cousins who also had parents with money… The poor people ended up having illegitimate kids who wound up living with relatives while the women were stuck working in the fields. Male-male relationships were also common. Even now, child abuse has small penalties as well, libel laws favor the rich, criminals names are protected… I’m sure that is related to all this. Money is everything there, and AH’s father must have had enough money and power to get away with a lot.
. “The Village In Court” by Regina Schulte discusses some of this.
The English farmers pulled that same incest mistake quite frequently, so much that the German American immigrant farmer ancestors I’m related to had explicit taboos against cousin marriage. . Even now, Austria has the most fresh water in the EU, so property there is probably worth bank. I’m sure that wine country is prime real estate, too.
It seems that wherever Master-Serf social structures are common, men see their homes as mini-serfdoms where they are Master and children and housekeepers are Property. Note Schwarzenegger was from rural Austria, and he saw nothing wring with impregnating his children’s nanny and hiding his secret child. They sometimes see employees as s3x toys or as property. Even education/music teachers and mentors sleep with their male and female students, they see nothing wrong with that.
It's amazing what the result of bad parenting can be.
He had a very loving relationship to his mother, who outlived the father. No, this was not the result of parenting in any way but the inevitable changing of tides withing a very unstable country
@@Pax_Luca the two aren't mutually exclusive. These things intersect
I’d say WW1 had more to do with his outcome than his father.
@@hazelwray4184 Yes, personal matters definitely affect how we act professionally, but if Adolf would've died for example, someone else would've taken his place as Führer. Things were stirred up and set in motion that a single person wouldn't be able to make or break, only direct in different ways. Say if Adolf would've been lost in the Beer Hall Putsch, the world would be hating on a different name than Hitler
@herknorth8691
On the other hand, not all children who were abused grow up to be mass murderers. Some of them turn out to be perpetual victims.
FAscinating story, thank you Mark, you have such a knack for unearthing curious stories from WWII.
Very interesting and documented , as usual. Thank you.
Happy All Saints' Day Dr. Felton!
History keeps providing us with interesting stories, dug up carefully by Dr Felton
Great piece, Mark.
Great as always sir!
Mark Felton- I love your videos. I've been very interested in WW2 and the Vietnam wars. I have learned so much incredible stuff from you. I'm 36 year's old and I didn't get to learn that much war history in school because they didn't teach it.. thank you for making such AMAZING videos with so many interesting details❤🇨🇦❤️
same here man I'm 34 and I've become a history nerd the last 3 or 4 years catching up on everything I should have been taught in school lol so grateful for the high quality history content
thank you Dr. Felton!
it sounds like Paula survived her father's awful "parenting" and role-modelling somewhat less messed up than most of her siblings. What a life.
I started following Dr. Mark when he about 20k subscribers, cheers 🥂 to your success!
Bravo! as always! can not wait for your next history lesson.
Paula did an interesting interview with the BBC many years ago. It was a fascinating look into how she actually was as a person.
Her eyes. Wow. Mark, is there any information on why Angela despised Eva?
Amazing story Dr felton.
Thank you for your work sir! I appreciate it
A video about Hitler's Swiss Bank accounts could be interesting
A remarkable video about an unremarkable woman.
Thank you for the video,
Thank you for the lesson.
I know that Chris Chan is the best documented human ever, but Dolfy is a close second, thanks to Dr Felton.
You should write a novel
Wow, I never knew of Paula Hitler. Thank You for sharing this. This was very interesting.
Thanks for a good birthday present!!! I appreciate you posting this 😊😊😊
Happy birthday!
Great video! Well narrated and reseached!!!
warning: jumpscare at 0:36
It's a shame how history is hidden , and why it's repeating itself today , right in front of us and no one seems to notice !!!
Unfortunately history has to sometimes be hidden to protect it from people who would rather see it destroyed, Said people love to attack things like monuments and graves first because said things are unable to defend themselves.
They’re afraid someone would turn said graves into shrines.
this was very interesting. i enjoy your historical perspectives.
Thank you Mark!
Dr Felton, have you ever considered doing a story on Hitler's alleged "son" ? There has been much debunking of the story but its intriguing that Heinz Linge believed it was true. Linge was in the position to know more about Hitler's personal life than probably anyone.
I believe he has already done a video on that topic.
Saw a documentary about an alleged daughter with Unity Mitford. The story goes she gave birth in England after her suicide attempt in Germany
He did one about a year ago
@@jackbarnes9728 I had a quick look before I posted. Apparently I missed it. I'll look harder thx.
This has already been covered.
